The Soldiers Home.

Have not the trustees of the sol
Aiers' home made mistake in de-
Gliding to first of all take soldiers
from the poor-houses in the State
We hear that enough such have
already applied to fill the present
capacity of the home. Until the
accommodations are increased, it
seems to us that it would be better
to provide for those who are IN want
but who have thus far managed to
keep out of the poor.houses. AS a
rule, these are the most needy and
deserving.
Then, after they are made COM
Portable, we would call from the
poor-houses as fast as accommoda-
tions wauld permit, until there
should not be a veteran left in Yer
mont to be treated as an ordinary
pauper.
The prevention of pauperism a.
mong this deserving class is the
chief object of the home. Proven
ton, then, should be its first care.
Cure can be attended to afterwards.

It Won't Do.

The following from the st. Johns
bury Republican represents our SEN
timents exactly:
1t is asserted that the managers in
Windham and Bennington counties
have made connections in other
parts of the State, so that they will
offer the following ticket for Re.
publicans to vote for next year: For
Governor, Levi X. Fuller, of Brat
tleboro; for Lieutenant Governor,
Alonzo B. Valentine, of bennington.
The managers may Golfer
such a ticket, but if the Republicans
Of Vermont have any regard fol
truth and honor and political de,
cency-and we believe they have
the "offer" will be respectfully de.
clined. Were Col. Fuller's qualifi.
cations for the Governorship much
more obvious than they are, he
would still be debarred from aspir
ing to it by the distinct and unquali
fled remuneration of any such aspira
ton made in his behalf 1T the last
State convention.

past a reputation for good horses,
second to no state in the Union, and
we are glad TO note that a vigorous
effort Is being made in all parts Of
the State to sustain this good repu-
tation. Valuable and costly stall
lions are being purchased 10y syndi-
Gates of farmers and horsemen to
improve the stock. We believe that
there is more money to be made in
the breeding of first class horses in
this State than in any other field
open to farmers. 1t will not do to
try and raise cheap, poor blooded
horses, raise only the best and you
will find a ready market and get

IncorrigibIe Criminals.

A law has recently gone into OPP
Grafton in the State of Connecticut
relative to the treatment of a class
of criminals known as ''incorngible"
that will in its results be watched
with interest by other States. 1t
provides that when any person shall
have been twice convicted, sentenced
and incarcerated in a State prlssn
for an offence for which the mini
mum period of punishment is con-
finement for two years, he shall be
liable on third conviction for crime
of equal grade to be detained %
years after the expiration of his
term at the discretion of the Board
of State Prison Directors. Such
board may at any time, if convinced
that the convict is thoroughly re-
formed and is determined upon pur-
suing a reputable career during the
remainder of his life, cause such
convict to be released on par
ole, but he will continue under
espionage and liable TO be rearrested
and consigned to prison again if any
lapse from good behavior become
chargeable to HIM. lie will be en-
titled to no trial, being already and
)ntinuously under sentence. In
every case the decision of the Board
of Prison Directors Will be final,
and no appeal can be taken from it.
The board it charged with the duty
of deviSing a mode of treatment cal
culated to inspire such criminals
with worthy purposes. lie is to be
allowed all reasonable facilities for
the Improvement of his mental
moral, and physical condition. The
process of reclamation of this class
of criminals must be slow, but it is
by no means certain that it is i'm
possible of execution. The theory
Of the law is a good one, and as we
have said, its practical workings
will be watched with great interest
by all friends Of reform.

The St. Johnsbury Caledonian
throws light on the question of Yer
mont State economy. Inquiries be-
ing made why certain burglars were
not caught, the Caledonian replies
that the sheriff has the inducement
to make an arrest of $l.45, all told
ii the prisoner be found within a
mile of St. Johnsbury. The act of
arresting entities the officer to SO
cents. Mileage and attendance at
court give him the rest of the mu-
nificent reward. A sense Of duty
would count for at least 81 As more.

Tribes of Terriers.

To many il will be u novelty to fiad that
Wales and 'relard both produce n dis
tinct race of terriers, which present, how
ever, no stri ling points of difference with
the wiry Scotch. And of the terriers
formerly known as Scotch, a more critical
age has established sundry classe3 which
hail from this side of the border There
is the Bcdlington, for instance, which re-
sembles the Dandie much as his North
umbrian master resembles Scot; and the
Yorkshire terrier, with long, silky coat. q
favorite companion Of the youths and
maidens of the earlier years of the present
reign. and then often loosely termed a
skye" 1t is this kind of small. long
haired dog, whether Yorkshire or skye"
that is ilercely apostrophized by Curtius,
in whose days il seems to have been q
novelty. ''Iseland dogges, curled and
rough all over, showing neither face nor
body, beggarly beast, brought out Of
barbarous hnrders."

lists upon the Island Of tSkye; but finer
specimens are in the hands Of the fanciers.
Then there are Clydesdale terriers. with
the general features of the generic Scotch,
and the inevitable black and tan. sCInc-
times called English but which seems to

called Skips, are, perhaps, the latest de-

"Eath's" Visit to Buffalo ISill.

About Buffalo Bills entertainment exist
the strongest feelings Of nationality. Cody
himself considers that he is to some eX-
tent an American officer. Texas COWBOYS
are as patriotic as Sioux Indians from
Wyoming. Buffalo Bill has but little
trouble to get along here, as he is
thoroughly simple in his Intentions; but
he expressed some pain at something pub
lished in an American newspaper which
made it appear that he was guying some
Of the English princes. Said he: Il would
not guy these men for enything in the
world, as they have treated me with
wonderful consideration, and do not be-
lieve that it is a proper thing to play any
practical joke on Il we'll meaning man."
'Oh, understand that this show costs
81, 900 a week; it may be $1,000 day
it is one or the other. But did not like
to inquire too minutely into the finances
Of the exhibition. Salisbury and Bill have
their treasurer, who is an exact and
painstaking man. The show seemed to
me to be far better than it was in Amer
lea. This may Lc because they have so
much larger and better grounds to per-
form in, and the riding is excellent Most
OF the feats, such as shooting by the
women, are exceedingly well done \
good many of the British people think
that the bucking horses are trained to
buck in sight OF the ;ru!ience: but this is
a mistake, for when went to the stables

Apropos of Gen. Faidherbe, an amusing
anecdote is related Of an adventure which
befell him when he commanded the Army
OF the North in the war Of 1870. His
charger. a splendid gray Arab, had been
wounded at the battle of Pont Noyelles.
and the general was obliged TO leave il be-
hind him at farm. Some days after, as
Gen. Faidherbe was at lunch. nom
commissioned officer of the PruSsan army
came up with French dragon and q
horse which Gen Won Cohen had sent him
with a polite message, believing it to be
his property. The horse was miserable
animal, and Gen. Faidherbe, amazed at
the apparition, asked the dragon for
an explanation. The man related
that he had been taken prisoner with three
comrades by patrol Of German cavalry
two days before, and that he had hit on
the bright idea of representing himself as
the orderly and his horse as the favorite
charger Of Gen. Faidherbe. The German
officers. had communicated his statement
to Gen. Won Cohen. who had courteously
returned the animal to the French general
Gen. Eaidherbc, however, asked the Ger
man soldier to take the dragoon and the
horse back with him, and the man had to
return crestfnllen at the failure Of his
ruse Gen. Won Goben, as soon as he
learnt the truth, directed that diligent
search should be made for the Arab. but
it had been So carefully hidden away that
he never succeeded in restoring it to Lis
adverSary.--Chicago Times.

medicine ar. all obtained by specialists.
Among the ablest of medical specialists
is DIR. Albert of Cleveland, whose great

devoted himself to the study Of obscure
and complicated diseases until they have
